SELENE symposium 2014 held in Japan in March 4 and 5

Significant progress in lunar science and technology has been made in the last decade by orbiter missions including our SELENE (Kaguya). It is time to start new analyses, for instance using data from multi-instruments and/or lunar samples.

For this purpose, we held an international symposium of lunar science, the SELENE SYMPOSIUM 2013, at Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), Sagamihara, Japan, in last January. The Symposium was very fruitful with more than 90 participants from 7 countries.

Here, we are pleased to announce to hold the 2nd symposium, the SELENE SYMPOSIUM 2014, in Japan, again. The meeting place will be at National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (NAOJ), Mitaka city, Tokyo. All scientists and engineers around the world who are interested in lunar science are invited to come together for beneficial discussions on the new views of the origin and evolution of the Moon. Presentation topics will be widely opened.
